Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-9
Severity: normal

Hi,

the ALSA virtual loopback sound card module, snd-aloop, is
missing from recent kernels!!!

(it was available on Lenny's kernel: 

/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/updates/alsa/drivers/snd-aloop.ko
)

Any idea why it disappared? The sources are included in all 
recent ALSA versions up to the latest.

I do NEED it, please make it come back in stock kernels!


Tnx a lot.


Ciao,
			Paolo.

Anything in the 'updates' subdirectory is installed by some other
package.  All modules included in the official kernel packages will be
installed under the 'kernel' subdirectory.

And yet not in mainline Linux, where they should be.

Then you should talk to ALSA upstream about including it in mainline.
